Motel chains make up the most abundant and affordable lodging options in the major communities of Kingman, Lake Havasu City, and Bullhead City, and a few historic hotels break up the modern mix. The swanky resorts at Lake Havasu City and the glittery casino attractions in Laughlin provide upscale rooms for visitors seeking more refined relaxation. Staying in a houseboat on Lake Havasu or Lake Mead puts a decidedly different twist on water recreation. Best of all, these floating rooms with a view can be maneuvered into countless coves and inlets, allowing for peaceful solitude rarely found on the busy beaches and popular waterways.
